5 - MediaWiki 1.9.3 and 1.6.7
9 - Add support for mypristine workflow
10 - Wordpress needs to get rid of the siteurl hack, so that it actually
11 has a fully-qualified URL http://foo.scripts.mit.edu/blah. This will
12 also fix Wordpress's cron functionality. We should be careful not
13 to write over users who are on vhosts. We should figure out who is
14 still on twiddle paths. We should make sure the redirect is handled
17 - Remerges aren't reflected in the parent files, so `git diff` output is
18 spurious. Not sure how to fix this w/o tree hackery.
19 - Sometimes users remove files. Well, if those files change, they automatically
20 get marked as conflicted. Maybe we should say for certain files "if they're
21 gone, they're gone forever"? What is the proper resolution?
23 - Parse output HTML for class="error" and give those errors back to the user (done),
24 then boot them back into configure so they can enter in something different
26 - If you try to do an install on scripts w/o sql, it will sign you up but fail to write
27 the sql.cnf file. This sucks.
29 - Web application for installing autoinstalls has a hard problem
30 with credentials (as well as installations that are not conducted
31 on an Athena machine.) We have some crazy ideas involving a signed
32 Java applet that uses jsch to SSH into athena.dialup and perform
36 - Tidy up common code in callAsUser and drop_priviledges in shell;
37 namely cooking up the sudo and environment variable lines
38 - Summary script should be more machine friendly, and should not
39 output summary charts when I increase specificity
42 - Figure out why Sphinx sometimes fails to crossref :func: but wil
43 crossref :meth:, even though the dest is very clearly a function.
44 Example: :func:`wizard.app.php.re_var`
45 - The TODO extension for Sphinx doesn't properly force a full-rebuild
46 - Make single user mass-migrate work when not logged in as root. The
47 primary difficulty is making the parallel-find information easily
48 accessible to individual users: perhaps we can do a single-user
49 parallel-find on the fly.
50 - Don't use the scripts heuristics unless we're on scripts with the
51 AFS patch. Check with `fs sysname`
52 - Make 'wizard summary' generate nice pretty graphs of installs by date
53 (more histograms, will need to check actual .scripts-version files.)
54 - It should be able to handle installs like Django where there's a component
55 that gets installed in web_scripts and another directory that gets installed
58 - ACLs is a starting point for sending mail to users, but it has
59 several failure modes:
60 - Old maintainers who don't care who are still on the ACL
61 - Private AFS groups that aren't mailing lists and that we
63 A question is whether or not sending mail actually helps us:
64 many users will probably have to come back to us for help; many
65 other users won't care.

86 * Some parts of the infrastructure will not be touched, although I plan
87 on documenting them. Specifically, we will be keeping:
89 - get-homedirs.sh. which needs to be run as root on scripts. Store
90 in /mit/scripts/sec-tools/store/scriptslist
92 - parallel-find.pl, and the resulting
93 /mit/scripts/sec-tools/store/versions
95 [ XXX: doc/deploy.rst ]
96 GET APPROVAL BEFORE PROCEEDING ANY FURTHER;
97 THIS IS PUSHING THE CHANGES TO THE PUBLIC
99 NOTE: The following commands are to be run on not-backward.mit.edu.
100 You'll need to add daemon.scripts-security-upd to
101 scripts-security-upd to get bits to do this. Make sure you remove
102 these bits when you're done.
104 10. Run `wizard research appname`
105 which uses Git commands to check how many
106 working copies apply the change cleanly, and writes out a logfile
107 with the working copies that don't apply cleanly. It also tells
108 us about "corrupt" working copies, i.e. working copies that
109 have over a certain threshold of changes.
111 11. Run `wizard mass-upgrade appname`, which applies the update to all working
114 12. Run parallel-find.pl to update our inventory
116 [ XXX: doc/metadata.rst ]
117 * The repository for a given application will contain the following files:
119 - The actual application's files, as from the official tarball
121 - A .scripts directory, with the intent of holding Scripts specific files
122 if they become necessary.
124 - .scripts/dsn, overriding database source name
